Ruth Dunkle Receives Grant from Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan for "Ageless Acts"

Associate Dean and Professor Ruth Dunkle’s project, “Ageless Acts” received a grant from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan to combat social isolation and ageism in the metro Detroit area. Ageless Acts, a professionally run theater group comprised entirely of older adults, will use high-quality creative, intergenerational programming to highlight the need to look at aging through a different lens, one that distinguishes between simply growing older and illness/decline.
